Best advice for PF symptom management |
I try to keep moving. When i go to bed at night i cough up a lot of junk from my lungs. When i wake up the same happens. I cough for much of the day. My pulmonologist is set to start me on esbriet. pulmonary rehab, using a machine at home to check my oxygen level at night. As a Christian, my faith in Jesus Christ is sustaining me through this.
